BACKGROUND

With the emergence of smart phones in recent years, the demand for miniature camera optical lens is increasingly higher, but in general the photosensitive devices of camera optical lens are nothing more than Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs) or Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Sensors (CMOS sensors). As the progress of the semiconductor manufacturing technology makes the pixel size of the photosensitive devices become smaller, plus the current development trend of electronic products towards better functions and thinner and smaller dimensions, miniature camera optical lenses with good imaging quality have become a mainstream in the market.

In order to obtain better imaging quality, the lens that is traditionally equipped in mobile phone cameras adopts a three-piece or four-piece lens structure. Also, with the development of technology and the increase of the diverse demands of users, and as the pixel area of photosensitive devices is becoming smaller and smaller and the requirement of the system on the imaging quality is becoming increasingly higher. Although the common four-piece lens has good optical performance, its refractive power, lens spacing and lens shape settings still have some irrationality, such that the lens structure cannot achieve high optical performance while satisfying design requirements for ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The present invention will hereinafter be described in detail with reference to several exemplary embodiments. To make the technical problems to be solved, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail together with the figure and the embodiments. It should be understood the specific embodiments described hereby is only to explain the disclosure, not intended to limit the disclosure.

Embodiment 1

Referring to FIG. 1 , the present invention provides a camera optical lens 10. FIG. 1 shows the camera optical lens 10 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The camera optical lens 10 includes four lenses. Specifically, the camera optical lens 10 includes, sequentially from an object side to an image side, an aperture S1, a first lens L1 having a positive refractive power, a second lens L2 having a negative refractive power, a third lens L3 having a positive refractive power, and a fourth lens L4 having a negative refractive power. An optical element such as a glass filter (GF) can be arranged between the fourth lens L4 and an image plane Si.

A focal length of the first lens L1 is defined as f1, and a focal length of the second lens L2 is defined as f2. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −0.75≤f1/f2≤−0.67, which specifies a ratio of the focal length of the first lens L1 to the focal length of the second lens L2. This can effectively balance spherical aberrations and a field curvature of the system.

A focal length of the fourth lens L4 is defined as f4. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.32≤f4/f2≤0.40, which specifies a ratio of the focal length of the fourth lens L4 to the focal length of the second lens L2. The appropriate distribution of the focal lengths leads to better imaging quality and a lower sensitivity.

A curvature radius of an object side surface of the fourth lens L4 is defined as R7, and a curvature radius of an image side surface of the fourth lens L4 is defined as R8. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 5.00≤R7/R8≤6.00, which specifies a shape of the fourth lens L4. This can facilitate correction of an off-axis aberration with development towards ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses.

An on-axis thickness of the first lens L1 is defined as d1, and an on-axis distance from an image side surface of the first lens L1 to an object side surface of the second lens L2 is defined as d2. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 1.40≤d1/d2≤3.20, which specifies a ratio of the on-axis thickness of the first lens L1 to the on-axis distance from the image side surface of the first lens L1 to the object side surface of the second lens L2. When the condition is satisfied, reduction of the total length can be facilitated, thereby achieving ultra-thin lenses.

A curvature radius of the object side surface of the second lens L2 is defined as R3, and a curvature radius of an image side surface of the second lens L2 is defined as R4. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −0.60≤R3/R4≤0.20, which specifies a shape of the second lens L2. This can facilitate correction of an on-axis aberration.

A focal length of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as f, and the focal length of the first lens L1 is defined as f1. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.46≤f1/f≤1.78, which specifies a ratio of the focal length of the first lens L1 to the focal length of the camera optical lens 10. When the condition is satisfied, the first lens L1 can have an appropriate positive refractive power, thereby facilitate correction of aberrations with development towards ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses.

The curvature radius of an object side surface of the first lens L1 is defined as R1, and a curvature radius of the image side surface of the first lens L1 is defined as R2. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −3.21≤(R1+R2)/(R1−R2)≤−0.53. When the condition is satisfied, a shape of the first lens L1 can be reasonably controlled, so that the first lens L1 can effectively correct spherical aberrations of the system.

A total optical length from the object side surface of the first lens L1 to an image plane of the camera optical lens 10 along an optic axis is defined as TTL, and an on-axis thickness of the first lens is defined as d1. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.07≤d1/TTL≤0.32. When the condition is satisfied, ultra-thin lenses can be achieved.

The focal length of the second lens L2 is defined as f2, and the focal length of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as f. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −3.45≤f2/f≤−0.88, which specifies a ratio of the focal length of the second lens L2 to the focal length of the camera optical lens 10. By controlling the negative refractive power of the second lens L2 within the reasonable range, correction of aberrations of the optical system can be facilitated.

A curvature radius of the object side surface of the second lens L2 is defined as R3, and a curvature radius of an image side surface of the second lens L2 is defined as R4. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −2.95≤(R3+R4)/(R3−R4)≤−0.17, which specifies a shape of the second lens L2. This can facilitate correction of an on-axis aberration with development towards ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses.

An on-axis thickness of the second lens L2 is defined as d3, and the total optical length from the object side surface of the first lens L1 to the image plane of the camera optical lens 10 along the optic axis is defined as TTL. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.03≤d3/TTL≤0.15. When the condition is satisfied, ultra-thin lenses can be achieved.

The focal length of the third lens L3 is defined as f3, and the focal length of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as f. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.23≤f3/f≤0.76. The appropriate distribution of the refractive power leads to better imaging quality and a lower sensitivity.

The curvature radius of the object side surface of the third lens L3 is defined as R5, and a curvature radius of an image side surface of the third lens L3 is defined as R6. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.39≤(R5+R6)/(R5−R6)≤1.76. This can effectively control a shape of the third lens L3, thereby facilitating shaping of the third lens L3 and avoiding bad shaping and generation of stress due to the overly large surface curvature of the third lens L3.

The on-axis thickness of the third lens L3 is defined as d5, and the total optical length from the object side surface of the first lens L1 to the image plane of the camera optical lens 10 along the optic axis is defined as TTL. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.09≤d5/TTL≤0.33. When the condition is satisfied, ultra-thin lenses can be achieved.

The focal length of the fourth lens L4 is defined as f4, and the focal length of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as f. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of −1.25≤f4/f≤−0.32. The appropriate distribution of the refractive power leads to better imaging quality and a lower sensitivity.

A curvature radius of the object side surface of the fourth lens L4 is defined as R7, and a curvature radius of the image side surface of the fourth lens L4 is defined as R8. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.70≤(R7+R8)/(R7−R8)≤2.25, which specifies a shape of the fourth lens L4. This can facilitate correction of an off-axis aberration with development towards ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses.

The on-axis thickness of the fourth lens L4 is defined as d7, and the total optical length from the object side surface of the first lens L1 to the image plane of the camera optical lens 10 along the optic axis is defined as TTL. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.04≤d7/TTL≤0.19. When the condition is satisfied, ultra-thin lenses can be achieved.

Further, the total optical length from the object side surface of the first lens to the image plane of the camera optical lens along the optic axis is defined as TTL, and an image height of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as IH. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of TTL/IH≤1.68. When the condition is satisfied, ultra-thin lenses can be achieved.

A combined focal length of the first lens L1 and the second lens L2 is defined as f12. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 0.91≤f12/f≤3.71. This can eliminate aberration and distortion of the camera optical lens 10, suppress the back focal length of the camera optical lens 10, and maintain miniaturization of the camera lens system group.

When the above conditions are satisfied, the camera optical lens 10 will have high optical imaging performance while satisfying design requirements for ultra-thin, wide-angle lenses. With these characteristics, the camera optical lens 10 is especially suitable for high-pixel camera optical lens assembly of mobile phones and WEB camera optical lenses formed by imaging elements such as CCD and CMOS.
